grease gun fitting for Moog

The grease gun I have has a rigid metal tube that does not fill the Moog grease fittings. Does anyone know where I can get a flexible hose that will fit the Moog?

Thanks

What type are on your ball joints?
Do they look flat across, like you need to push something inside or do they stick out ?

Pics... ?

My grease gun came with two nosels, straight metal one and a hose one for that reason. I only use the flexable hose one.

Mine too but there is an adapter called a Needle Injector Tip and if you have the indented type of grease fitting then it will fit in and pump in the grease.

The Needle type fittings is used in tight fitting areas, not the best but they works.

What type of fitting is on your Ball Joints ?
